Thanks for the memories!

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

The acting in this movie is really good.

I watched this anime recently and was pleasantly surprised. First thing noticed was the animation quality itself, which was a LOT better than in some of the animes I've seen (10/10). The music was also really nice (especially the opening theme, "Scarlet")-- well, maybe except "Cross My Heart" (8/10).The characters were mostly well developed - from lonely Toya to ruthless Kagami to compassionate Yuhi. The only slightly annoying thing was Aya's tendency to go over-emotional... Overall I'd give character design a 9/10. But the best thing was, of course, the storyline itself, which was impressively well developed. Although tragic and cruel, it shows how important it is to love and be loved, to feel compassion and to have a family. Perhaps the only drawback to it was that in the first few series, Toya and Aya's relationship got sort of rushed. Although after watching the anime "X", which pretty much had no storyline at all to it, I feel obliged to rate the story of "Ayashi no Ceres" as 10/10. Beware! "Ayashi no Ceres" contains many very cruel and nasty scenes which are NOT suitable for children.

Ayashi no Ceres is perhaps one of my favorite animes.In traditional Watase Yuu stlye (following the hit anime Fushigi Yuugi), Ayashi no Ceres is, in essence, a fairy tale. Also keeping with Watase Yuu style, this anime is a Shounen (girl's anime), though it is recommended for ages above 14 (at least) due to graphic violence, sexuality, and nudity.It's about a girl named Mikage Aya who suddenly discovers that she is the reincarnation of an ancient Maiden, an Angel.Other such characters as Yuuhi, Suzumi, Q-san, and Chidori help Aya along her way to learning how to control this new found power, and to stop the Mikage family from using the DNA (the C-genome) of the Angel for their own personal and selfish gains.Characters like Alex, Kagami, Miyori, and Wei seek to harness the power of the Angel.However, one character remains a mystery... the strange Touya. Just who is Touya and how is he connected with Aya? It's a series with a few good plot twists, and it plays off of the Hagoromo legend which is very well known and popular in Japan. For those who don't know the legend, I suggest a bit of looking up. Depending on where you are in Japan, the legend differs. Each however, deals with an Angel and her Robe (Hagoromo).I recommend this anime (and it's manga as well) to anyone who enjoys a good anime, Watase Yuu, or Japanese Folklore.

The series, by Ms. Yuu Watase, is a rather gory and romantic tale about a celestial being (an angel for you slow ones) whose robe (hagaromo) was stolen. This robe allowed her back into heaven. The man who stole her robe, then lied he didn't know where it was, 'forced her to be his wife' (as Ceres, the angel, put it) and the main storyline follows the fate of her decendents.In modern day Tokyo (I'm guessing, they never really do say), we have Aya and Aki Mikage on the eve of their 16th birthday. Aya decides to go get her fortune told, and doesn't realize how real and true it is. The next day, she and Aki go to their grandfather's only to be shown a mummified hand, which does have a great signifigance in the story. Well, much blood, kisses, and floating occurs, and we meet the Aogiri's, who also have some of the celestial blood in them. This goes to that, and it ends up being a very good series. Along the lines of being a very good celestial followup to Ms. Watase's first major series, Fushigi Yuugi.

Well the story is about an angel who go down to the earth, and there is a man whom see her taking a bath. Then the man take something from her, he will return it if the angel agree to marry with him. The story is always heard when we were children, but this is not that simple. Because the angel hates her husband whom she gave her power and kill their older son. The angel became angry and take revenge with kill her husband. Until now they always reborn and reborn,when they reborn they killing each other even they love each other too. LOVE BECOME HATE!But to bad the main woman character in here (name : Aya), is simply cry. I don't like if the woman character who always cry that's mean that she is WEAK. There is a man named Touya, he is Aya's lover whom handsome and cool. All the character is had many difficult thought and they try to do something to protect someone they loved, and for they wishes for long time. Different from the comic, in the anime the story is more serious and there is just a little sense of humor. I almost forget that the man character is almost ike Keigo in "kamisama mou sukoshi dake".THIS ANIME IS BETTER THAN FUSHIGI YUGI, which Watase Yuu created with many scene main woman character naked and she is so easy with any of man.
